In case you somehow missed it, Halsey and actor Avan Jogia after paparazzi snapped some major PDA pics of them.

If you're looking at those photos of him and thinking, I feel like I know him from somewhere, then you've come to the right place. Here's what you need to know about Halsey's new boyfriend, Avan Jogia.

He and Halsey are ~red-carpet official~

Avan and the "Nightmare" singer made their red carpet debut at the premiere of Monkey Man on April 2, 2024!

And they're fully posting each other on Instagram, too

Halsey and Avan went IG official on Halloween, when they appeared to dress like a pirate and a siren.

He also supported the About-Face Beauty founder at a dinner celebrating The Performer Foundation launch (scroll to slide 3 for some cuteness!):

Aaand made a sweet appearance in a recent photo dump:

Yes, Halsey is (supposedly) dating the one man we all wanted back in the early 2010s. Avan Jogia played Hollywood Arts hottie Beck Oliver on Victorious from March 2010 to February 2013.

"I don't look back on [Nickelodeon] fondly," Avan told Teen Vogue of his experience. "But I do think it's interesting to see just what it means to people. It's touching, but also it's out of your control. I feel like I represent sadness for people because they can sort of look at me and be like, 'Oh, right. I remember when I used to be young and things weren't so complicated.' It's like, I represent an uncomplicated time. Sometimes I think I have a strong desire to keep that image safe for them."

Then he starred in his own shows

After his time on Victorious, Avan landed the leading role on the ABC murder-mystery drama Twisted. The series only lasted one season, with 19 episodes from 2013-2014. In it, Avan played Danny Desai, a 16-year-old who was charged with the murder of his aunt when he was 11 and sent to a juvenile detention center. After being released five years later, Danny tried to clear his name.

In 2019, he played the lead role of Ulysses on STARZ's trippy dramedy, Now Apocalypse.

He also makes music

He's not just an actor. Avan can also sing (😍), which true Victorious fans remember. In fact, he and his brother Ketan are in a band together called Saint Ivory, and they've been putting out music since 2018. Their album Mixed Feelings came out in 2020, and their most recent single "We Stay Cool" dropped on August 31.

Oh, he's also an author too

It doesn't stop there. Avan is also a published author! On September 17, 2019, he put out Mixed Feelings, a short story and poetry book about his experiences being multiracial.

And a director!

Avan has got a truly impressive resume. As if actor/singer/writer wasn't enough, he had to throw director in there too.

Avan dipped a toe into directing in 2016 with the last four episodes of Last Teenagers of the Apocalypse, as well as the short movie Of Dogs and Men in 2016 and Alex in 2022. But his real claim to director fame is his 2022 directorial debut Door Mouse (which he also wrote and acted in, slay 💅).

Before his rumored relationship with Halsey, Avan dated Zoey Deutch
